Welcome to Frugal Living NW!

I'm Angela Davis, a PNW native, mom of lots of kids, and I love saving money. I'm here to help you live well on a budget by making every penny count. You'll find deals at your local stores, ways to save online, recipes, and frugal living tips and inspiration.

This was not in the laundry detergent section — it was next to one of the registers. The bottles were a bit dusty, so I’m thinking they pulled them out of the warehouse, slapped on a low price to get rid of them. Your local store may or may not have the same deal.

I discovered that Walmart lowered the price of the Johnson & Johnson Reach Dental Floss from $.97 to $.88 at my store over the weekend to make it an even better deal.

There’s a new mail-in-rebate out at Walmart: Buy any one Hasbro game, Get a FREE Tombstome Pizza. You can submit up to 5 rebates per household; one rebate per form and envelope. This means you will have to get one form per game you purchase.

There were a moderate stock of games at the Wood Village Walmart Supercenter; I suspect they will sell out soon. I don’t suggest you make a special trip just for the games. But I do think you should grab the rebate forms while you are there in case the store restocks soon!

My Walmart (E. Vancouver on 192nd) wouldn’t accept the $3 off coupon for Toy Story 3 Operation. Coupon said, “good only for item shown.” She said that meant only for the Classic version of Operation whose picture was on the coupon (this was the supervisor.) I had to go back twice to get the game because of being sold out. I told her couponing sites said it would work, but no deal. I’m sure that’s why they were sold out. Grrrr!
